When Donny is excited about an idea he wakes his brothers up to help him build 💜

And Raph's reproach is so gentle, I don't think he'd be that mild if it was anyone else

"guys you gotta help me"

"Angel?" <- Donny's voice. I am winning

They drop what they're doing immediately to help their friend. I care them. a normal amount

ajdhajsh Raph comforting her while Mikey and Donny exchange this look about the police not helping her

Don immediately unnerved by the lack of security

Angel established as one with intuition in this episode. Trusting their instincts is a big characterization thing especially with Mikey, Raph, and April. And now Angel

Donny just knows all kinds of random useful stuff

Raph 'look I found a skeleton'

Leo does not like that she's just pressing forward touching things, pushing buttons and making Things happen. The first time she did it they (especially Donny) were impressed but now Leo is getting Irritated

dramatic old man

Donny "Um, sir, aren't you the least bit freaked out?" I love how he talks like a teenager but like a teenager who is trying to talk like an adult

Angel is taller than Leo and Raph (and I think they're taller than Donny and Mikey? at this point?)

Leo looking to his team before he says they're still going after the beast. What he says is "we don't have a choice," they're saving Ryan after all, but the fact that he pauses and checks in with them first is neat

Leo said 'nope sorry Angel you pressed the skeleton button now you are staying behind'

Donny treating his peers like children (he is. one year older than her).

It is really interesting the different ways the creature manipulates them. Shredder scared Raph but not enough to make him freeze up. Okay. What if you're the Shredder? Your own worst enemy and the source of all your problems. Now will you stop fighting?

The fact that it tries Splinter multiple times with Leo. Splinter getting hurt, okay now what if he hurts you?

the fact that it's always family members turning evil for Mikey. hnnnnng

anyways it only showed us small snippets of each turtle's fears besides Leo, want to write more detailssss, for the othersssss

oh yes of course. before the cells all looked the same but now we can clearly tell that the active one is glowing. since we got to see each turtle's fear they may now find Ryan within seconds.

so Angel's just been. Alone with this guy. And now she gets to watch him dissolve coolcoolcool

Angel: Ryan! You're alright!

Donny: He will be, after a nap. And a shower.

Angel: By the way, any idea where I can buy a flame thrower? There’s this project we’ve been wanting to try and I’d kinda like to surprise him.

Ryan:

As they get closer Donnie often asks Ryan about their mom, because he likes to learn about her, but Mainly because he knows it helps Ryan and Angel a lot. It takes a while but they’re eventually comfortable enough to bring it up themselves.

(Meanwhile they are also trying to pry Donnie open like a walnut about being abducted by aliens and visiting an apocalyptic future and growing up with nothing that he and his family didn’t build themselves and his secondary mutation and—)
